After looking at my system log I indeed have the same message!

What do you mean by disabling the "firetv" driver? Is that done by
kernel module, a special make command when compiling, or something
else entirely?

Also, I should apologize to the administrator for sending several
mails from the wrong address. I didn't notice my phone doesn't use the
same reply address that a message was sent to (i have several
addresses forwarded to one inbox).
